Kerstin Florian has unveiled a new skincare product called Lift and Firm Crème, which has been designed for all skin types to improve lift, firmness and rejuvenation.
The cream features a peptide complex known as Uplevity, which is said to support the skin’s natural collagen and elastin for a firmer and more lifted appearance.
Ingredients that help maintain hydration, smooth skin texture and refine facial contours have also been included in the formula to improve long-term skin health.
Bakuchiol, a gentle botanical alternative to retinol, has been added due to its antioxidant properties that can strengthen the skin’s natural barrier, reduce inflammation and promote collagen production.
Arnica Montana flower extract is also incorporated into the crème, due to its traditional healing benefits, such as providing calming relief for irritated skin.
St John’s Wort and Horse Chestnut are said to provide smoothing and radiance-enhancing effects due to their flavonoids and capillary-strengthening properties.
The brand has used a natural biopolymer complex, which it says provides an instant tightening effect on the skin. To create the complex, extracts of kappaphycus alvarezii and caesalpina spinosa fruit have been combined.
Kristina Zanardi, global director of education and product development, Kerstin Florian, told
Spa Business: "Each Kerstin Florian formula is created with the same intention; we always strive for natural and advanced ingredients that promote healthy skin. With this crème, we wanted a breathable yet protective shield, achieved through a novel natural biopolymer instead of more traditional acrylates. Perfecting the tone and texture took time, but the result is beautifully balanced and effective."
TreatmentThe product features in the new 80-90-minute Lift and Firm Facial.
Designed to address tone, firmness and prevention of premature ageing, the facial begins with an exfoliating multi-acid peel. This is followed by a lifting massage and then a Gua Sha massage to sculpt the skin.
Retinol, active vitamin C and bakuchiol will be used to target ageing skin, increase collagen and a sheet mask will balance and nourish the skin.
The experience is completed with the Lift and Firm Crème.
